Ahhh, the Mystery Machine going into a skid. A staple of the original "The New Scooby-Doo Movies." They even used one of H-B's car skidding sound effects to complete the motif!

It was kind of unusual seeing the Scooby gang in their classic designs meeting with Batman in his "modern" WB design, probably because I'm used to seeing the Scooby gang when in their classic designs meeting Batman, he'd either be in his 70s H-B design or the "Brave and the Bold" design. They even had Kevin Conroy do Batman's voice, and of course Mark Hamill doing a great job as the Joker!
Wow, Scooby's Batman imitation was surprisingly almost flawless!

Nice to see Velma paired up with Scooby and Shaggy when splitting up, just like the olden days. (I've often done it that way in the Scooby-Doo fanfics I wrote.) Though it was probably because they split up without the guest star accompanying them, as usually he/she would go with Scooby and Shaggy.
And then we get another "Scooby-Dooby-Doors" sequence that ends up getting silly!
And then Scooby's upset over the Man-Bat cracking Scooby's phone screen? He should be glad it wasn't smashed to pieces like Velma's phone!

Heh, Scooby bouncing up on the hose and beating on the Man-Bat in different ways before knocking him down was reminiscent of "Never Ape an Ape Man" when Scooby would knock on the Ape Man in a similar fashion during the movie shoot scene!
And when Shaggy tries hiding in the closet, I heard more classic H-B "wood door" sound effects!

I enjoyed how the Joker wore rubber masks of Alfred and Langstrom under the Man-Bat mask. That's right up the Joker's alley! And I enjoyed how he said "All those masks were SO hot, and my face was living in the tropics! Not in a good way, if you know what I mean!"
I figured the Joker would be behind it all, as I know the Joker all too well. No matter; it was great to hear Mark Hamill voicing the Joker again.

Now comes the wait for the second half of the first season. So far I'm enjoying this show, and it's a fun way to celebrate Scooby-Doo's 50th anniversary!

Scooby-Doo and Batman is kind of this time-honored team-up dating back to the New Scooby-Doo Movies, and to be honest might be one of the more memorable team-ups of that show, so it was great to see Guess Who do their own take on it and have the most iconic voice of Batman get his guest spot with Scooby and the Gang :D.

Was not expecting a surprise connection between Daphne and Alfred to lead into things, even if their connection seemed to get more and more distant the more Daphne explained it o_O .

I like that the show took influence from several different interpretations of Batman for their take here. Obviously we've got Kevin Conroy as Batman and a surprise Mark Hamill as Joker appearance along with some vague resemblances to B:TAS (ditto with the Arkham villains), but we also had the Batmobile from the 60's show and the Batcave reveal from that same show. Plus Steven Webber reprising Alfred from the Batman '66 animated films ;).

I like that this show had fun with Batman. I'm actually surprised at how many gags they had at his expense :p.

Poor Langstrom. He can't help but transform into a horrific bat-creature, but he's also really lonely :(.

Does it count as stealing when you take stuff from a store that's been abandoned :confused:.

I thought the culprit might be one of Batman's female villains given the use of lipstick and a clothing store, but if anyone would also be into those things, it's The Joker. That was a nice reveal, especially with Mark Hamill's trademark laugh, and while this wouldn't be the first time he's the culprit in a Scooby-Doo movie, this was definitely one of his more memorable outings as one :evil:.

The episodes with fictional characters are easier for me to get into than the ones with celeb guests. I love Wonder Woman and Batman's episodes, Sherlock's had an interesting twist and I appreciate the Urkel revival. I loved all of the H-B stuff in the Funky Phantom episode. Wasn't there supposed to be one with Superman? I was looking forward to three with the DC trinity.

The initial announcement only had Batman, Wonder Woman and Flash as guest-stars. I imagine if Superman were to appear they would have mentioned him, but they might be saving him for the 2nd season.

If he's not voiced by Jason J. Lewis if he shows up, then a great injustice will have been done :p.

I probably tricked myself with my own wishful thinking. I thought I remembered Jason J. Lewis recording for this series or something. It's cool to hear Flash is included though. If Superman is unavailable, at least my favorite JLAer isn't.

Well, I've been watching more episodes now!
With "The Sword, The Fox and Scooby-Doo," it felt like Warner Bros. Animation was catering to furries with the Fox Monster! ...not that there's anything wrong with that.
I did enjoy how Mark Hamill was not amused how most people were only into him for his "Star Wars" stuff, very much like how he can be in real life (and I know in cartoons he usually prefers voicing other original characters instead of himself, like in "The Simpsons" episode he guest-starred in.) I also loved it when he referenced and laughed like the Joker. I wonder if Mark had a hand in writing this episode too?
Interesting mirror routine with Scooby and the silhouette of the Fox Monster.

In "One-Minute Mysteries," it was interesting hearing the Flash's antics being accompanied by Hanna-Barbera sound effects (except for the lightning when he'd speed along or the Warner Bros. cell door "Clang!") I also enjoyed the appearances by those other classic Scooby-Doo ghosts and monsters.
It was fun hearing Mark Hamill reprise his role of the Trickster; when I heard his voice reading the letter to the Flash I started to get excited. I also really enjoyed the gag with the Trickster wearing a rubber mask of the Joker; that was a fun in-joke to one of Hamill's other most famous roles!

George Takei being in "Hollywood Knights" reminded me a lot of Futurama's Scooby-Doo parody he guest-starred in, "Bendee-Boo and the Mystery Crew!" But it was still a fun romp.

"Too Many Dummies" gave me some real Goosebumps "Night of the Living Dummy" vibes, along with a bit of the "Child's Play" movies.
During the motel scenes, a couple of times I heard one of those classic Disney Castle Thunder sound effects (like they used in many of their animated features up until after the mid-80s!) Before this the only other times I've heard Advantage Audio use it was in a couple of "TUFF Puppy" episodes. Now if only they could use it in one of the many Disney shows they work on, like in that newer "Mickey Mouse" series of shorts...
And then when the spooky hotel clerk unlocks the room door I heard a classic Hanna-Barbera door lock sound effect! Nice touch with the little details.
I guess the writing staff forgot Shaggy could do some ventriloquism in the older shows ("Help! Let me out of this pot!")

"Dance Matron of Mayhem" had a nice break from the usual formula, particularly on who the ghost turned out to be! How this time it WASN'T someone the gang met earlier on in the episode committing a crime, the one that would appear to be the least likely.

Hehe, in "The Hot Dog Dog," I liked how Haggerty's mascot was a dead-on copy of Scooby-Doo! Couldn't Mystery Inc. consider suing the company? Very different from when villains like the Ape Man, Chameleon and J.C. Chasez would intentionally impersonate Scooby, or my cosplaying as him for fun!
But now I want to get a hot dog costume like the mascot had and wear it with my dog paws and Scooby-Doo mask (very much like the actor had on)!

Hey, I see a bunch of obscure cosplays at conventions every year! (Except this one for obvious reasons...)

It looks like, Season 2 (starting from Episode 27-onwards) consists of coming back of some characters that appeared in Season 1, such as Simone, The Actor ("The Fastest Food Fiend") and Big Bob MCAllistair (from "The Attack of the Weird Al-Osaurus!") (Episodes 1-26 in the European order).

Yep, I liked seeing Simone the Actor in "The Hot Dog Dog" again, this time in a hot dog mascot costume with a mask that looks very much like Scooby-Doo! (I'm reminded of the Ape Man's Scooby-Doo mask, or the one I have, an officially-licensed Halloween mask made by Rubies.)

Just like in two of the final episodes of Season 1 of "Scooby Doo and Guess Who?", in two episodes of the 1st batch of Season 2 - there's a recurring motif in which the guest star becomes the villain of the episode. :)

as a survivor of childhood trauma, I I wish everyone would leave Amanda Bynes alone. she owes us nothing, and I hope she's doing as well as she can possibly be right now.
I think most people are very upset and lamenting the fact that Nickelodeon (NOT including preschool shows nor nick@nite) aren't having regular new episodes since after Transformers: EarthSpark finished the season.

Let's hope we get new promos during watching Sonic the Hedgehog 2 tomorrow night.

I knew about the promotional cans but I'm just seeing this ad for the first time. I love seeing Daredevil pushed by Marvel.
Notable moment from The Rock.
The time when Gunther spoke Dutch in Friends.
